Adele’s comeback has been long awaited, and it has been a huge success so far. Although it’s too early to tell how well her return single “Easy On Me” will perform on the charts, there are other, less quantifiable indicators we can use to gauge Adele’s success, such as the fact that she’ll get her own two-hour primetime TV special. There were incorrect allegations that the song had broken a huge iTunes record, but today we have proof: “Easy On Me” had the greatest Spotify streaming day ever.
According to Spotify, the song broke the record on its first day of release, October 15. The song was streamed 19.7 million times worldwide on the 15th, according to the Spotify Charts website. The Kid Laroi and Justin Bieber’s “Stay,” the second-most-played song of the day, received 7.2 million listens. According to Rolling Stone, Spotify revealed that the song received 24 million streams in its first 24 hours. That surpasses BTS’s previous record of roughly 21 million streams achieved on May 23, when “Butter” was released.
